Harvard University Spent the day in Cambridge and at Harvard University. In the morning we visited The Collection of Historical Scientific Instruments. We learned about octants, sextants, and other shipboard instruments, especially those used for navigational purposes. In the afternoon, we were supposed to have a lecture at the Fogg Museum. Unfortunately it was closed due to some repair work that wasn't originally on their schedule. I was awfully disappointed because they have some pieces in their collection that I was dying to see. And anytime you get the chance to see a new or different art museum, you have to take advantage of that! However, it did give us the chance to see more of the campus, and more of Cambridge, MA. So I can't complain too much. We all split up and went our separate ways for a while. I walked a lot of the campus after going to lunch at a local burger joint, Bartley's (which was excellent by the way). I ended up seeing a lot of where Good Will Hunting was filmed.
